03 The facts, at a glance
Protection
Filter type Mineral filters (zinc oxide, titanium dioxide) sit on skin and reflect UV. Chemical filters absorb UV. Hybrid runs both.
Mineral
Broad spectrum Covers both UVA and UVB. UVA drives aging and deeper damage; UVB gives you burns.
Yes
Formulation & feel
Texture How it feels going on — milk, gel, cream, spray, stick, essence, lotion, powder, or cushion.
Cushion
Finish How it looks once dry: matte, natural, dewy, or glowy.
Natural
Tinted Adds sheer pigment (iron oxides) that masks the white cast common to mineral filters and gives a skin-tone finish.
No
Fragrance-free No synthetic perfume added. Not FDA-defined in the US; the EU requires 'Parfum' + the 26 named allergens on the label. 'Unscented' is different — it can hide masking fragrance. Botanical oils still scent.
No
Alcohol-free No drying short-chain alcohols (alcohol denat., SD alcohol, ethanol). Doesn't mean fatty alcohols like cetyl or stearyl — those are emollients.
Yes
Verdict Is it worth it?

Mineral cushion tone-up base with zinc oxide and titanium dioxide and a long herbal extract complex. The fragrance set, including three EU allergens, pulls down the otherwise gentle-mineral framing.

Pros
  • Mineral-only filters: zinc oxide and titanium dioxide
  • Tone-up finish via ultramarines in a coverage-friendly cushion
  • Herbal complex with centella, houttuynia, scutellaria, pueraria
  • Niacinamide supports tone evening
  • Cushion format suits portable retouching
Cons
  • Added fragrance plus limonene, linalool, citronellol
  • Mineral cushions can flash white under photography
  • Allergen load conflicts with the soothing herbal positioning

Who it's for: Tone-up cushion users who want a mineral base and accept a perfumed K-beauty formula with common scent allergens.
